Composite index (metrics)
The composite index or composite indicator (abbreviated as c-score) is a numerical indicator that evaluates the quality of a scientist's research publications, regardless of the scientific field in which they operates. It was initially introduced in 2016, by the Greek-American metascience researcher John Ioannidis at Stanford University, with an improvement following in 2019.
